Do You Hear What I Hear? Some Jingle Bell-y laughs and minds being (snow)blown. That’s right, It’s Beginning To Look A Lot Like Great Branding and in this episode Allie and Lyndsay brandsplain all of the strategies and tactics that make the holiday branding so compelling...and how you can incorporate them into your business year-round. Gather round the fire as they break down the two pillars of holiday branding—spectacle and story—and share magical background stories to classic campaigns (did you know Rudolph was created by a department store?!), insights into how this season taps into consumer emotion in order to convert, and personal anecdotes from their upbringing that prove that fun is an unmatched tool for creativity and differentiation. Like taking a bite out of a Christmas Tree shaped Reese’s, this episode will leave you happy, hopeful, and ready to take your business from Scrooge to Santa—all year long.
